Seriously? Some people study nature so they can exploit it. Some study it so they can learn useful things – look at this gecko climb, how does it do that sort of thing. Some study it because we can’t protect what we don’t understand. Some study it simply for the sake of wanting to understand how it works and where it came from. If you think you can reduce all of scientific investigation to some kind of profit motive then you really do not understand human curiosity at all.
